Don't you hate it when you can't get that pesky alien implant out of your groin? Dr. Roger Leir is here to help.

Dr. Leir, a major player in the world of UFO research, will be appearing as a special guest at an event in Burbank on Sunday February 7. The gathering at Pickwick Gardens also include Jordan Maxwell ("a preeminent researcher and speaker in the fields of secret societies, occult philosophies, and ufology since 1959," according to the man's website) giving lectures on "The Hidden Dimensions in World Affairs." (Both seem to be friends to the Forteans.)

This youtube video of Dr. Leir's 2009 speech before the International UFO Congress will give you a sense of his style.

"Yes, abductees do get implants," the man introducing Leir to the group points out sternly. "And yes, Dr. Leir has removed a lot of them. It's getting serious guys — he's made some absolutely extraordinary findings."

Part of what's interesting about Dr. Leir is that he's down-to-earth, matter-of-fact, empirically scientific in his storytelling — kind of... dull. As one commenter notes alongside the video:

if you could afford to fake his surgeries (which you can watch) and pay him enough to lie, i think they would have paid off someone with more charisma like obama, someone who can really keep your interest, it doesnt seem logical to use someone so boring to listen﻿ to convince the masses of such an important issue.

Who can argue with that? Either way, we will see ya there - if THEY don't get us first.
